==First Episode==
The first ''Meanwhile in the TARDIS'' episode followed the first episode of Series 5, ''[[The Eleventh Hour]]''. [[Amy Pond|Amy]] asks the [[Eleventh Doctor]] how the TARDIS retains its air supply because she believes it's made of wood; why he labels a time machine "police box"; where the other windows seen on the exterior of the TARDIS are; what is a police box; is the Doctor a police man; if he's seen his haircut; if he needs to change the bulb on top the exterior of the TARDIS; and if his bow tie is a cry for help. All these are asked in a breathless fashion.


The Doctor answers most of these questions, then is asked again by Amy if he's an alien. The Doctor informs Amy that, from hiss perspective, she's the alien. Amy wonders if the Doctor is a space squid or a tiny slug zipped in a human suit, but the Doctor dismisses her theories, stating he's as human in appearance as he appears.

The Doctor answers most of these questions, and is asked again by Amy if he's an alien. The Doctor informs Amy that, from his perspective, she's the alien. Amy wonders if the Doctor is a space squid or a tiny slug zipped in a human suit, but the Doctor dismisses her theories, stating he's as human in appearance as he appears. Amy admits she's done with her questions, but the Doctor tells her she's just begun; he throws a switch on the TARDIS console as he opens the door, showing her the cold void of space outside.

When Amy says it looks like special effects in a studio, the Doctor proves it's real by pushing her out of the TARDIS. This action leads to the beginning of the next episode The Beast Below, which starts with the Doctor hanging onto Amy's ankle as she floats in space outside the TARDIS.

Second episode

The second episode of Inside the TARDIS bridges Flesh and Stone and The Vampires of Venice.

After being seduced by Amy, Doctor forces Amy back into the TARDIS. She leans on the console with a seducing gaze at the Doctor, who simply ignores and pulls the door release lever to lock the TARDIS doors right next to her.

Amy asks if she did something wrong. She thinks that she is getting "mixed messages" from the Doctor; meanwhile she unlocks the doors. The Doctor re-locks them and asks Amy how she's getting mixed messages. Amy says that the Doctor showed up in the middle of the night and took her for a ride in his time machine. Amy insists that it's an obvious signal, telling her to "Get your coat, love, the Doctor's in."

The Doctor quickly explains that he didn't bring her with him because he found her attractive; he tells her that's not what he's like, proudly says that he's like Gandalf in space. Amy insists that he acts like a regular bloke, showing off for the girls and laughing at other guys. This is actually proved by the Doctor making fun of Rory's nose.

The Doctor tells Amy that he can't "see it" any more. He's made time and space his back yard for over nine hundred years, so everything about it is now just facts to him. But Amy can "see it", which lets the Doctor see it as well. That is his only reason.

When the Doctor reluctantly admits that he's had "a few" companions, Amy manages to access the TARDIS's visual records. To the Doctor's dismay, the TARDIS plays black and white visual records on the round screen of many female companions, from Barbara Wright to Donna Noble, in random order.
